Our adventure began in 2025 when Mike, Sue, and our Black Lab, Norman, moved to Port Stanley. We instantly fell in love with the lakeside charm and the warmth of this community—we knew right away we were home.
The transition to pub owners happened faster than we ever imagined. We saw an ad on Facebook looking for new owners of The Hydrant Pub in Port Stanley... and three hours later, we owned a pub!
Setting up shop inside the historic Fire Hall Market was the perfect way to create the cozy, welcoming hub we always dreamed of. At The Hydrant, we serve more than just cold drinks; we serve up the true spirit of Port Stanley. With the best patio in Port Stanley, you can enjoy workshops and live music while soaking in the community vibe.
We’re proud to be part of this community, one pint at a time. Stop by, shop local, and pull up a seat!
